This is slightly off topic, but I have purcased 2 bracelets that were on EZ pay that I am still paying for that have broken!!! One of them was a silver bracelet with a fluer di lies charm and the other one is a silver cross beeded bracelet where the clasps have broken off!

 

The quality has gone down and I am spending less, espessially on jewellry, makeup and clothes. Over priced, and cheap jewelry.

You NEVER soak Roman Glass.  I don't know what the issue with the stone spoken about but Roman Glass is never soaked.  You will lose the patina of the ancient glass and it will not return.

I ordered the ring in the Opal, but I realize that Opal is an expensive (and fragile) stone.  I honestly don't expect a stone that knocks my socks off, perhaps one that is closer to a milky aqua in color and I'd be ok with it.

 

I also love the Roman Glass and won't buy any until Or Paz figures out a better way of handling it.  I don't understand why, if  jewelers put a sliver of stone on a ring and cover it with crystal (doublet).... why can't that be done to protect the Roman Glass, which is put on in flakes, delicately with tweezers....  I think some kind of cover where you can see the beauty yet it is covered with a clear beautiful thin stone might be the answer.  I'm willing to pay more for it.....
